Her time is valuable; an hour with her will set you back a few hundred dollars (or whatever the local equivalent is). She’s fashionable; she wears silk stockings and looks good in a court wig and robes. She’s cultured; she speaks several languages, knows her claret from her Beaujolais, and can carry on a conversation with anyone from the flower vendor to the Queen. She's not a barrister or a solicitor (though she could just be putting herself through school and might be arguing cases in a few years yet). In simplest terms, she's a prostitute, but that label fails to capture the full breadth of her occupation. The High-Class Call Girl—also known as an escort or "courtesan" if you're feeling fancy—occupies the highest tier of her profession, which is usually safer, pays more, and is seen as more respectable than working in a brothel or on the street. On-screen, it allows for attractive actresses to do plenty of fanservice, while not dealing with the truly unsavory aspects of prostitution. She moves through elite circles and appears at fancy events. Her clientele will mostly be men (and sometimes women) in the upper echelons of society (expect at least one of them to be a politician, particularly one who is always publicly touting his good old fashioned Family Values). The nature of this clientele may also lead to them becoming involved in a Hookers and Blow situation. Historically, a High-Class Call Girl was refined, well-educated, and genuinely smart, giving her more agency than most women of her time. In modern settings, she has even more financial freedom to control her situation, choose her customers, and engage in Unproblematic Prostitution. She might not officially sell her body at all, she might merely sell her time and company, and whether sex happens during that time is up to her. Often an Ethical Slut; also likely to be a Hooker with a Heart of Gold, or to become a Miss Kitty when she's older. Compare and contrast Dominatrix and Silk Hiding Steel. Compare Gold Digger. If they limit themselves to one client, they are The Mistress. She may be a Shady Lady of the Night. See Up Marketing for other examples of selling to the well-to-do. |

The World of Suzie Wong downplays it, since Suzie does have to pick clients up at a bar, but considers herself higher class than streetwalkers. She also makes enough to briefly support Robert financially. She also has an Unlimited Wardrobe of fancy cheongsams. The book clarifies that she did used to be higher class, working at a dance hall and having rich businessmen as clients. She only had to stop working there when one of them got her pregnant and decided not to marry her. | |

Desperate Housewives: In season 1, Maisy Gibbons is a housewife who runs a side business as a prostitute for various married men in Fairview. Bree's husband Rex Van de Kamp uses Maisy's services to engage in BDSM activities he's too ashamed to tell Bree about. Bree ends up finding out about Rex's visits to Maisy when he has a heart attack during one of them and is hospitalized. Later on, Maisy is investigated and arrested for solicitation and cuts a plea deal with the district attorney to give up a list of all her clients, refusing Bree's request to take Rex's name off said list as a way of retaliating against her for snubbing Maisy when her husband Harold got laid off from his job a year earlier. | |

Played with in a Red Ears comic. A john visits a dignified woman's lavish apartment, who is soon revealed to the reader to be a prostitute. Looking around the place while she changes into a nightgown, he realizes that she's very cultured, intelligent, and rich. She just chose to be a hooker because she likes it. | |

Catch Me If You Can. Frank meets one in a hotel, enjoys a night of sex, and then not only gives her a fake check but scams her into giving him $400 change for the fake check. He recognizes her as a model, so it's not quite clear if she's a full-time prostitute or if she was just tempted by his rich guy persona. | |

In the Kushiel's Legacy series, prostitution is a sacred calling. The protagonist, Phedre no Delaunay, is an extremely high-priced prostitute, who, besides her innate craving for pain, is a trained spy, speaks thirteen languages, and is quite generally regarded as the best in the business by man and woman alike. She also becomes active in court politics as a confidante of the Queen and earns a noble title, making her high-class in every respect. | |

Lightly implied to be Lady Meserole's former (?) profession in the Discworld novel Night Watch: she asks if Vimes thinks she's an "old seamstress" ("seamstress" being an Unusual Euphemism for "prostitute") and he says, "Actually I was thinking bespoke tailoring." She also goes by "Madam" and there's some uncertainty about whether it's a job title or more of an honorific. | |

The Apothecary Diaries: Pairin, Joka and Meimei, who main protagonist Maomao views as her surrogate older sisters, are beautiful and skilled courtesans who are known as the "Three Princesses" due to their services being highly sought after and very expensive. They also have skills that distinguish them from common prostitutes; specifically, Pairin is a great dancer while Meimei and Joka are known for their skill at strategic board games and having intellectual talks with their clients. It's later revealed that Fengxian, Maomao's mother, was once the most expensive and sought-after courtesan at the Verdigris House before the Three Princesses took that position from her (with Meimei having started out as her apprentice). She was well-known for her beauty and her skill at playing shogi and go; unfortunately, getting pregnant with Maomao ruined her worth as a high-class courtesan and her beauty and mind have both been destroyed by syphilis. |

Katchoo was one during her years in LA in the history of Strangers in Paradise. She looks back on this time with nostalgic fondness and love, but also with horror, disgust, and revulsion. It was during this time that she met Emma, the first person to actually be nice to her except for Francine, and the woman who took her off the street, gave her a place to live, and whom Katchoo eventually fell in love and escaped with, but Emma is also the one who introduced her to the world of prostitution and, more importantly (and traumatically), Darcy Parker, whose psychotic tendencies and obsessions drove Katchoo to drink, abuse drugs and suffer from crippling emotional issues for years. | |

Madame Leonora Armfeldt, of A Little Night Music, is a prime example. She spent her days as a courtesan in the palaces of Europe, romancing princes, dukes, barons, and a few kings. After making several fortunes, she retired to her estate in Sweden, where she raises her granddaughter and laments about how "modern" women lack the skill, discretion, and passion for sex that her generation displayed. Madame Armfeldt even has an entire song, appropriately titled "Liaisons," in which she lists off her conquests. | |

Yugiri from Zombie Land Saga was a legendary oiran when she was alive during the Meiji Restoration (while in the present day, she's a zombie who's been revived to be part of an idol group). Episode 2 shows that she's very good at playing the shamisen, which is just one of many skills oiran were expected to learn. In Episode 10, she also reveals that she had training as a Geisha. | |

The temples of the goddess Calistria in Pathfinder engage in sacred prostitution, including of the clergy if they so choose. Calistria's champions can and will visit terrible vengeance upon you for daring to harm their workers, or any other sex workers for that matter. They are very much into the prostitute must agree to all services. Her champions may be Chaotic Evil Antipaladins. That means the high-class call girl (or boy) may be an unhallowed knight who is classy, charming, and willing to slit your throat or cleave you in two with a greatsword the second they feel disrespected. | |

Gail, the madame, carries herself in such a way as to imply that she is quite pricey. Not to mention nobody ever stiffs them - well, those who try don't live to regret it. | |

Nayotake Shimizu from Kaguya-sama: Love Is War was a prostitute in such high demand that she could charge over a million yen for a single night of service. She eventually ended up getting pregnant with the child of one of her clients (who had fallen hopelessly in love with her), leading to the birth of Kaguya Shinomiya, the series' main character. | |

In Death in Paradise, Victim of the Week Carlton Paris is a male version who caters to the wealthy and powerful women of the island: his home is filled with expensive clothes and artwork, and he extensively researches his clients' interests so he can hold up his end of a conversation. Being a noted Pretty Boy doesn't hurt either. His classiness was what got him killed; he realised a painting at the local art gallery was a forgery while researching before a date with an art-loving woman, and was shot by the gallery owner to stop him from telling anyone. | |

The women (and men) of Dollhouse are this, and much, much more. Since they're actually "blank slate" bodies with personalities downloaded into them meeting the clients' exact requirements, the Dollhouse caters exclusively to the super-rich. Prostitution is pretty common, but hardly the limit of what they're capable of being. In the pilot, Echo is sent out to act the part of a hostage negotiator. | |

Prostitution is considered a sacred profession by the Summer Islanders of A Song of Ice and Fire, being practiced even by the nobility. Chataya, a Summer Islander, runs a high-class brothel in King's Landing that caters to nobles and wealthy clients. Another example is provided by the courtesans of Braavos, who are famed throughout Essos and Westeros and who enjoy a practically revered status. Whilst all of them enjoy high status, each owning their own river barge and servants to crew it, one of them, the Nightingale, is so revered that the bravos that wander the street, looking to duel and show off their swordsmanship, will challenge anyone who does not agree that she is the most beautiful woman in the world. |

The Wano arc of One Piece introduces "Komurasaki" (real name Kozuki Hiyori), who is an oiran, the highest rank a courtesan in Wano can hold, and considered the most beautiful woman in the nation. She also doubles as a Heroic Seductress by fooling several rich men through false promises into bankrupting themselves paying for her company, while secretly giving the money they pay her back to the poor. She also uses her role to get close to Shogun Orochi (the man who murdered her parents), who is deeply enamored with her, to gain information to help the alliance. | |

Kestel Falke in The Ascendant Kingdoms Saga has a backstory as a highly sought-after courtesan in the royal court of Donderath. This was actually a cover for her real job as a hired spy and assassin; she ends up in the Penal Colony of Velant after being caught at the latter. | |

Planescape: Torment has two different classes of prostitutes who can be solicited, the other group being very destitute. Additionally, there is the 'Brothel For Slaking Intellectual Lusts,' run by the redeemed succubus Fall-From-Grace. Sex isn't an available service, but her clientele are basically paying High-Class Call Girls to be nerdy with them. |

Sam's not-girlfriend Laurie from the first season of The West Wing (yes, the one played by Lisa Edelstein) is probably the highest class of high-class call girls, being that she provides her service for some of THE most powerful men in the country. She's actually codified almost perfectly, as she's actually a final year law student (later graduate) from Georgetown University paying her way through college. | |

Portrait in Sepia: In her prime, Amanda Lowell is a beautiful Scottish actress in San Francisco. Money is not enough for her services; charm and good manners are also necessary. She literally collects notches in her bedpost, one for every lover. Feliciano Rodriguez de la Cruz has a dalliance with her. Paulina del Valle (his wife) finds out and is furious about him embarrassing her like that. | |

Discussed in The Wise Man's Fear: Denna rescues a runaway girl forced to play prostitute to make ends meet from a violent client, then has a long talk with her about how if she doesn't want to return home she can at least make herself one of these. The glamor only goes so far, though: Denna compares a High-Class Call Girl to a normal prostitute by comparing a lord's well-kept horse to a shabby, run-down steed - including the part where at the end of the day they both get ridden. | |

In season 3 of Boardwalk Empire Gillian Darmody opens a high-class brothel but she fails to attract the right clientele and it struggles financially. By the end of the season, it is taken over as headquarters for Rosetti's mobsters and it quickly devolves into a low-class establishment that the mobsters are more familiar with. Gillian was not a prostitute herself before this, but in season four she becomes a low-class one in order to support her heroin habit. | |

Beware of Chicken: This is essentially Guan Chyou's role in the Azure Jade Trading Company; she's both intelligent and attractive, and is assigned to highly valued clients to provide for any and all needs that they may have — business-related or otherwise. When she starts flirting with Jin, who's happily married, he quickly shuts her down and requests different services, but doesn't realize it's actually part of her job; he assumes it was more of an impromptu order to seduce a client. When business partners assume that Chyou is in fact sleeping with Jin, she allows and even encourages the assumption, for her own protection. Jin's reputation and influence mean that no one will dare to push any boundaries with her if they think she's taken. | |

Anita in D.Gray-Man, could qualify as both this and Miss Kitty. She runs the biggest and most fancy brothel in China, so it is probably the most expensive that only the upper-classed men could afford. When dressed up and running her brothel, she wears very elegant clothing and a fancy headdress. She seems to get nothing but respect from people and has her own ship, with a crew who respects and obeys her every word; thus, she also has a knowledge of sailing. She meets the Exorcists in China but speaks Japanese, which is good since only 1 person in the group of 4 speaks Chinese. Her lover, Cross Marian, who has a good share of other lovers himself, says that she was a strong and good woman, after finding out she's been killed. She also has a big burly female bodyguard named Mahoja who also works as a bouncer for her brothel, most likely to make sure the men won't abuse her or any of the other women, as it's been said Anita has no tolerance for mean people. So, if you're going to be with her or anywhere near her or her brothel, you'd better be well-mannered. She's a prostitute, but she has standards and will NOT have patience if you break them. | |

The Confessions of Frannie Langton: Frannie worked as one for a while at the School House brothel with Sal, wearing beautiful dresses and her quarters being very nice. It's also unclear if she even has sex with any johns, as those seen only want to be flogged by her. She's still quite miserable since she'd only gone there due to being forcibly separated from her girlfriend Marguerite, whom she misses deeply. | |

Dangerous Beauty is a bio-pic of Veronica Franco, who was a Real Life Venetian courtesan, or high-class prostitute. At one point in the movie, she — [ahem] — "persuades" the king of France to lend Venice the warships needed for war with the Turks. In Real Life, she did have a liaison with King Henri III, but it probably wasn't of quite that much diplomatic importance. | |

Companions in Firefly. They are seen as high-class citizens, and Inara gets bizarre looks when she steps outside the ship on backwater planets. Contrast that to the unlicensed brothel in the episode "Heart of Gold"; the workers there are seen as trash. When the crew gets interned by an Alliance Cruiser, the officer interrogating them is rather surprised to find a preacher and a Companion on board, implying that Companions have at least equal social standing to that of the clergy. At one point, Inara uses her status as a Companion to browbeat a country sheriff into letting Mal and Zoe out of jail. It's also mentioned or implied several times that Mal originally allowed Inara to rent one of his shuttles because she would give his "enterprise" an air of class and sophistication and that her presence would ensure that his ship could land even in "respectable" ports. |

In Diary of a Lost Girl, Thymian is pretty lost by the time she escapes from a women's reformatory and winds up as a high-class call girl in a fancy brothel where champagne is quaffed and the customers wear tuxedos. | |

"Shanghai Lily" in Shanghai Express (Marlene Dietrich) is a hooker and obviously a very expensive one, traveling in the first-class car of the train, and wearing a series of very ornate dresses. She has a travelling companion Hui Fei, who similarly appears to be expensive; a scene shows them playing records in their cabin, which by the standards of the Great Depression was to show them as extravagant (most people couldn't afford recorded music). | |

Yumi Komagata from Rurouni Kenshin was an oiran (a high-class courtesan). Also, despite not being a bad person, she was far more cynical and emotionally broken than the standard thanks to some extreme dick moves on the part of The Government. The prequel Master of Flame is dedicated to Yumi and shows how her pre-Shishio life was, mentions how she became a call girl, and shows how she and Shishio met in the luxurious brothel she worked for. | |

Ted believed that the date Barney got him for an award ceremony was one in How I Met Your Mother. The series of Accidental Innuendos didn't help. She actually was a paralegal. | |

The temple prostitute Shamhat from The Epic of Gilgamesh. Temple prostitution was part of the duties of some priests and priestesses of that time and place, and thus it was seen as a sacred and respectable act. | |

Buffyverse: Darla was implied to have been one when alive, as she was "a whore" (in her words) but also "a woman of some property" according to the Master, and had some servants whom she dismissed from her deathbed when the Master showed up. | |

Also, Tránsito Soto from The House of the Spirits. She doesn't really start as such, though: by the time she's in her 30s/40s, however, she has become this thanks to hard work, growing into her looks and showing off lots of smarts and charisma. | |

Invoked in Octopath Traveler. Primrose is sadly not the trope, but she enjoys the glamour and confidence of its image as much as anybody. One of the few happy moments in her story's first chapter is when she takes the opportunity to dazzle a young girl with her beauty. | |

Torchwood: Miracle Day has a girl like this, who was hired by Jilly upon Oswald Danes' request. However, when she arrives, he actually asks her to make it sort of a date, to what she replies that she's gotten her hands dirty for politicians, famous stars, and the like, but he shouldn't forget what he is (a child rapist, that is). | |
